The Science of Spirituality

The Science of Spirituality is a ground-breaking book
that integrates the individual systems of science, psychology, philosophy,
spirituality and religion into a unified system that describes the
multi-dimensional nature of man and the universe. It provides a more
comprehensive description of reality than conventional science can offer and
fully explains the mechanisms behind an array of paranormal phenomena that
mainstream science chooses to ignore. It explains the science behind
religious, spiritual and new-age belief systems, and sheds light on some
common misconceptions.

Einstein said: "Religion without science is
blind, science without religion is lame", because they are two
sides of the same coin. Recent scientific discoveries have
unknowingly provided evidence that supports the
multi-dimensional nature of reality that Hindus, Buddhists,
Gnostics and Kabbalists have known about for thousands of years.
By combining modern scientific facts with ancient spiritual
knowledge we can begin to uncover the whole truth and bring
unity out of the existing duality. There can be only one true
reality, but we will never know the whole truth if we only look
from one perspective and hold on to our preconceived ideas.

The Science of Spirituality systematically
describes the mechanisms behind a diverse range of subject
matter including: esoterics, consciousness, sleep and dreams,
reincarnation, religion, creation, evolution, space and time,
higher dimensions, heaven and hell, ghosts, angels and demons,
out of body experiences, near death experiences, clairvoyance,
psychic abilities, personal development, meditation and the
meaning of life.

With science and religion we have two
seemingly opposed views of how life, the universe and everything
began:

Scientists
generally believe that a perfectly balanced universe
spontaneously appeared out of nothingness, and that life,
consciousness and intelligence randomly evolved from inert
matter.

Christians generally believe that an all-powerful and all-knowing God
created the world and its myriad of life-forms (in just six
days).

Not only do they both seem pretty
unbelievable, they appear to share no common ground. However,
recent scientific discoveries have unknowingly provided evidence
that supports the multi-dimensional nature of reality that
Hindus, Buddhists and Kabbalists have known about for thousands
of years:

The latest scientific models state that the universe is multi-dimensional,
with six or more hidden spatial dimensions, and is primarily
composed of non-physical matter (dark matter and dark energy).

Respected doctors and medical practitioners are now openly investigating
near-death experiences, out-of-body experiences and past-life
regression, and are beginning to discover the multi-dimensional
nature of human beings.

By combining modern scientific facts with
ancient spiritual knowledge we begin to uncover the whole truth
and bring unity out of the existing duality. There can be only
one true reality, but we will never discover the whole truth if
we hold on to our preconceived ideas and only look from one
perspective. Einstein said: "Religion without science is blind,
science without religion is lame", because they are two sides of
the same coin.

Science and spirituality both agree that we
live in a multi-dimensional universe, and paranormal phenomena
suggest that life exists in these other dimensions. Human beings
may be at the top of the evolutionary ladder in our
3-dimensional physical world but a hierarchy of increasingly
advanced beings live in dimensions that exist just beyond our
normal range of perception. These higher-dimensional beings are
omniscient and omnipotent in our physical world, which is how
our concept of god originated.

A handful of these highly advanced beings
periodically incarnate to teach the most advanced members of
humanity about the true nature of reality. The great masters
such as Krishna, Buddha and Christ (and others who kept lower
profiles) are the originators of esoteric knowledge – the one
true science and the one true religion. The information was
shrouded in mystery and symbolism to prevent the uninitiated
from fully understanding it in the event that it became public
knowledge.

Most of the world's major religions were
built around carefully selected pieces of this esoteric
information that were taught to the general public at various
times throughout history. As time passed and the religions grew,
bureaucracy, dogma and superstition developed, which further
distorted the original teachings. Science developed in response
to the woefully poor explanations of reality offered by western
religion. The early scientists were persecuted and deemed
heretics for questioning the Church and delving into the mind of
God, when all they sought to do was to understand the world in
which they lived. Scientific scepticism of all things mystical
is still very much apparent today.

A significant amount of esoteric
information was released into the public domain at the end of
the 19th century but it (theosophy) failed to make much of an
impact because religion was dominant, science was in its infancy
and the people of the time were too reserved. The popularity of
metaphysics, spirituality and new science in the 21st century
indicates that the world is now ready for a modern presentation
of esoteric knowledge.

Awakening to Wholeness

Awakening to Wholeness describes a
two-fold path of awakening that combines psychological and spiritual
development. Psychology is concerned with the personal aspects
of our being (i.e. body, emotions, mind and ego-self) and
spirituality is concerned with the transpersonal aspects of our
being (i.e. soul and true-Self):

Psychological Development means "growing up"
psychologically, i.e. freeing ourselves from the childish,
defensive, reactive and egotistical programming that keeps
us from living life fully consciously. It involves mastering
(not repressing) our minds, hearts and bodies to free
ourselves from the fears, inhibitions, conditioned
behaviours, reactive emotions, critical judgements and
limiting beliefs that prevent us from living happy, peaceful
and fulfilling lives. This is achieved by dissolving the
"negative" psychological material that keeps us trapped in
these old patterns, and by actively expressing positive
qualities in our daily lives.

Spiritual Development means "waking up" spiritually,
i.e. raising our level of consciousness (to connect with our
true-Self) and widening our breadth of consciousness (to
experience life more fully). It is not about transcending
the world; it is about bringing higher levels of
consciousness down into our being and expressing them in our
daily lives. It is about being here as fully as we can and
experiencing all of life. There is nothing we can actually
"do" to spiritually evolve because it is the result of not
doing, undoing or being. Simply "being" is at the core of
every authentic spiritual practice, including meditation,
mindfulness and prayer.

Awakening to Wholeness
clearly and comprehensively describes the dynamics of human
consciousness, ego-development, psychological healing,
personal development and spiritual
awakening.
It also includes a range of powerful transformational tools, techniques
and practices that can help us to:

Understand why we think and behave the way we do.

Heal and re-integrate the wounded parts of our psyche.

Manifest our full potential.

Let go of the things that are holding us back.

Lead a happier, richer and more fulfilling life.

Know and express our true-Self.

Realise that what we have been searching for has always
been here – inside of us.

Recognise that the opportunity to awaken is always right
here and now.

When we were born, our personal consciousness was undeveloped
and inexperienced, and we had very little understanding of the
world outside of us. As we learnt about the world we gradually
constructed a mental model of how (we believed) things were out
there. The more we learnt about the outer-world, the more
complex our inner-world model became. Over time, it developed
into a meticulously detailed virtual representation of reality.
The virtual-reality world inside our mind was a near-perfect
representation of the real world, but it was (and still is)
coloured by our beliefs and distorted by our misconceptions.

Our interactions with other people helped us to fit them into
our inner model, and their interactions with us helped us to fit
our self into our inner model. The concept of self we developed
through our interactions with others was that we are a separate
individual who is contained within a physical body. This was
very different to our inherent sense of true-Self, which is
pure, radiant, infinite and one-with-everything. So, at this
early stage of life we had a sense of two different selves – our
true-Self and our "false" concept of self. The two selves
were so different that we didn't know which one to go with – we
didn't know who we were.

Our parents related to us as if we were a separate individual
in a physical body (our false-self); not as if we were an
infinite radiant being (our true-Self). They interacted with our
false-self and pretty much ignored our true-Self. Only our
false-self got validated, so we eventually went with that one.
Essentially, the false-self came into being because we were not
seen for who we truly are. Our false-self became our identity
and our virtual inner-world became our home.

Obviously, we can't live solely in our virtual-world because
we have to eat, drink and interact with the real world in order
to survive. We have to maintain a connection between our
virtual-world and the real-world, so we project our
virtual-world and virtual-self out onto the real-world. This
gives us the impression that we (false-self) are living in the
real-world. We perceive the real-world with our virtual-world
seamlessly projected over it. This virtual-world overlay is what
makes an anorexic person believe they are fat, or a tone-deaf
person believe they are a great singer.

When our two images of "reality" don't match up; when our
real-world experience clashes with our inner-world expectations,
our inner-world and our (false) sense of self are de-stabilised.
This makes us anxious, so we feel compelled to reinforce our
(false) sense of self and our model of reality by justifying,
denying or blaming someone else. Our false-self is in control in
its virtual inner-world, but it has very little influence on the
real outer-world, so we often get frustrated when things don't
go our way.

Our virtual-world provides the added benefit of distancing us
from the confusing, distressing and traumatic situations of the
real-world. As a young child we learnt how to use our
virtual-world as a psychological buffer to soften the impact of
real-world distress. It allowed us to block out or distort
certain aspects of our reality, paint a rosier picture of our
life and justify the other people's negative behaviour towards
us. It allowed our innocent immature consciousness to cope with
the sometimes harsh realities of the real world. Over time we
stopped perceiving the real world directly because it felt safer
to perceive life indirectly, through the intermediary of the
mind. Over time we became so identified with our false-self and
our virtual-world that we fell asleep to objective reality and
forgot who we truly are. This is the root cause of most of our
difficulties in life.

We have lived most of our lives not knowing who we truly are,
and not knowing why we can't find lasting happiness or fulfilment.
We have tried everything we could think of to feel happy, but
nothing really satisfies us for long. So we keep striving and
strategising in the hope that one day everything will be
perfect; but no matter what we do or how hard we try, lasting
happiness always seems to elude us, and lasting fulfilment is
always just out of reach.

If we sincerely want to know authentic peace, happiness and
contentment we need a new strategy for life. What we actually
need is "no strategy" – no "doing" – just "being". We have been
"doing" all our lives, and it hasn't really got us anywhere.
This book is focused on "being". It can help
us to realise that
what we have always longed for and what we have been
subconsciously searching for
has always been there – we have just been looking in all the
wrong places. It can help us to realise experientially
that what we seek has been there all along – right inside of
us.
